Verse 1:
G Working for the devil Em You'll have to pay his tax G That means going to see him Em Down among the racks G You don't believe in him Em But he can wait for you A G You do his work so fine Em He'll remember you B D E He'll remember you G Em G Em (hit G once and then strum Em)
Verse 2:
G Worried for my friend Em As he shows me round the flat G Where I don't wanna find him Em His lips an' eyelids black G He don't believe my speech Em That lines can and should be drawn A G Like if he had a shotgun Em The barrels would be sawn B D E The barrels would be sawn
G Em G Em
Verse 3:
G Swallowed by the river Em Swollen by the rains G That leakin' ol' computer Em Of fingerprints and names G Swimming in the river Em That floods the neighborhood A G I would call to you Em But it would do no good B D E But it would do no good
G Em G Em
Verse 4:
G Voting for the law Em That's the general occupation G First the public safety Em Then second comes the nation G You won't believe me now Em But there's been some illumination A G The wisest cops have realized Em They fucked the operation
B D E
G Em G Em
Verse 5:
G Cooking up the books Em A respected occupation G Em The anchor and foundation of all multi-corporations G They don't believe in crime Em They don't know that it exists A G But to understand what's right and wrong Em The lawyers work in shifts B D E The lawyers work in shifts...
G Em G Em
Verse 6:
G 'N speaking of the devil Em He ain't been seen for years G 'Cept every 20 mins Em He zooms between me ears G I don't believe in books Em But I read them all the time A G For ciphers to the riddles Em An' reasons to the rhymes B D E Reasons to the rhymes
G Em G Em
